I'm developing an accessible cross platform application using Xamarin.Fomrs. I'm using NavigationPage
to manage the navigation. When I am in a second page and I want to go back using the button in the navigation bar, TalkBack says: "unlabeled button".
How can I set AutomationProperties
for this button? The main goal is to set different help texts depending on the current view. Is it possible
I achieved my goal with this renderer:
[assembly: ExportRenderer(typeof(ContentPage), typeof(AndroidNavigationPageRenderer))]
namespace SZukaldatzen.Droid.Renderers
{
public class AndroidNavigationPageRenderer : PageRenderer
{
public AndroidNavigationPageRenderer(Context context) : base(context)
{
}
protected override void OnElementChanged(ElementChangedEventArgs<Page> e)
{
base.OnElementChanged(e);
Activity context = (Activity)this.Context;
var toolbar = context.FindViewById<Android.Support.V7.Widget.Toolbar>(Resource.Id.toolbar);
toolbar.NavigationContentDescription = "Go back";
}
}
}
Now TalkBack says "Go back" when back button is selected.
